Re: What does 'huge mailbox' means?

[André Schild <andre@xxxxxxxxx>]

Usually clients works fine with 10000-30000 emails per folder.

But more than that.... they just slow down/crawl, no matter how much power you have on serverside.

Out suggestion to the client(s) is to make subfolders by year or something like that.

Yes, that's a lot. Even if your server is able to handle that number of messages in a single mailbox, most *clients* won't.

Hi,

I have a folder, where I have 163000+ emails.

Is it a lot or not?

We use zfs dataset as underlying filesystem (not optimal raidz2 with 6 SSDs).

Thank you!
